2-3 years of experience as a Project Coordinator

-need a true project coordinator, nothing more senior level

- prefers someone close to location to come in when necessary, if close enough can come in once or twice a week but must be in for important meetings/events

The primary purpose of a Project Coordinator (PC) is to drive differentiated patient solutions by ensuring smooth delivery of UCB’s program and project completion through effective project coordination. The main responsibility is to support the Project and Program Manager operationally. The Project Coordinator supports the planning, execution and monitoring or controlling of projects to successfully realize the intended benefits.

Project Coordinators partner with the Project and Program Managers. They work across different projects and/or programs to ensure that the planning information (Product, scheduling, budget) is accurate, appropriate, and up to date with effective monitoring and change controls, so that UCB’s governance bodies and stakeholders can make the most informed and timely decisions.

Project Coordinator’s assignments can vary in terms of Product, size and complexity and may include the management of specific deliverables within the project or program. Examples of these projects include coordinating workshops, integrating project work across different departments and supporting UCB’s PM Methods and Standards Development.
